DAS emulator

Emulate DAS DHT behavior, with a few simple assumption

• the block is populated in the DHT by the builder (node 0)
• all nodes start sampling at the same time
• 1-way latency is 50ms (configurable)
• no losses in transmission (configurable)
• scaled down numbers (nodes, blocksize, etc., all configrable)
